Rosh Hashanah is quickly approaching and the Kitah Gimmel Butterflies and Dragonflies are excitedly anticipating the festivities that come along with our new year. As the holiday falls in line with the beginning of our school year, we decided to make our first art project follow the holiday theme as well. Many items are symbolic for this holiday, one being the pomegranate. The pomegranate, along with being a sweet treat, is abundant in seeds that serve as a symbol of hope that we will come before G'd with abundant merits. The students in Kitah Gimmel marvel at the sight of pomegranate seeds. Although it was difficult not to eat them, we made out with beautiful art work to display above our cubbies and as a special card for our beloved Grandparents.
First we sprinkled seeds all over our paper. We used cardstock to ensure the paper wouldn't rip with the pomegranate juice. Asher and Sela got right to it by scattering then splattering.

Lots of smiles from Lev and Lily as the seeds popped and squirted red juice all over!
Mason dropped the seeds and Parker smashed them with the mallet.
Gavi and Yael were very careful when they made their painting.
Twins (Yonah and Adom) find a way to make everything more fun!
Orli was concentrating really hard!
Splat, splat, splat said Elliot and Liav!
Leora was feeling very regal while making her art.
Erez noticed that the juice went so far!
Look at the beautiful pictures we made!
Then our Morahs scanned them and made them into cards for our grandparents.
Finally, we got to put them in the mailbox ourselves!
SHANA TOVA U'METUKAH!
